“In place of their mom they like a Teddy to cuddle at all times,” explains the commentator as the babies snuggle with stuffed animals.

The twins drink goat's milk from a bottle, but it is lacking in antibodies, which makes them prone to infection so they have sadly developed a special form of mange. Luckily step mom Judy has come up with an unusual solution!

And Fleiss -- who used to party and regularly supply hookers for Sheen -- believes that he will be the one yelling "Winning!" when the dust finally settles in the dispute that has rocked Hollywood.

She said: "CBS mad a mistake canceling the show. They should have just accepted Charlie for who he is and got on with it.

"He's always been a razor sharp person, and I do not think he's suffering from any mental illness or anything like that either.

"I was delighted to read that at one point he was getting higher ratings that the Oscars; that shows that people really care about him and not just that stupid show that CBS cancelled.

"People tuned in to see Charlie Sheen. that must be obvious to everyone by now. I've no fears for him because whatever happens he will be okay."

In his latest radio interview Friday morning on The Chio & Shila Show on Philadelphia's Wired 96.5, Sheen claimed that there was a deal in the works to bring Two and a Half Men back on the air.

"Absolutely the gig's coming back, I have absolute faith in that," Sheen told Wired 96.5, noting he sees "a few adjustments" in the future.

Sheen also intimated that he was happy about the way his custody battle was going with his estranged wife Brooke Mueller over their twin sons Max and Bob.

And Fleiss believes that this is the saddest part of the media circus that has engulfed her famous former client.

She added: "There's no way that Charlie Sheen should not be able to see his kids.

"Personally, I don't think that society should you make any judgements on the personal lifes of fathers. I've no doubt that Charlie Sheen is a good dad to his kids.

"I've got no opinion on his Goddesses. I'm way past even thinking about them, but I know that whatever happens Charlie Sheen will be okay in the end."

Heidi Fleiss has just filmed a pilot for Animal Planet about her beloved parrots. Meanwhile, her dog grooming salon and hotel First Pedigree has now opened its doors in Las Vegas.

VIDEO: Puppy Bowl Adds Bite To Super Bowl Sunday


Posted on Feb 06, 2011 @ 10:28AM - Add a comment

Forget the Super Bowl, fans went dog wild for the 7th Annual Puppy Bowl on Animal Planet Sunday. 

PHOTOS:  Check Out The Puppy Players

The furry football game has been a huge hit on the Animal Planet Channel since it premiered in 2005, and RadarOnline.com has highlights of this year's furry fumbles and tail-wagging touchdowns.

Playing on a model football field called the Animal Planet Stadium, the pooches all come from shelters and the show gives details on how viewers can adopt their favorite 'player.'

PHOTOS:  Sexy Stars Who Have Dated Football Players

New this year was the Puppy Cam, giving a puppy's eye view of all the action. Though the game has gone to the dogs, other animals were invited to join in the fun, with hamsters at the controls of the Ice Breakers blimp and chicken cheerleaders on the sidelines. Just like any game, tail-gators - with real tails! - gathered outside the stadium.

One key player was Koda, a Siberian Husky, who ran the ball into the end zone. Little Red was one of the smallest players but he wasn't scared to stand up to the big dogs like Calvin, who's bark was worse than his bite.

An illegal bite to the back end even resulted in one scruffy terrier getting a puppy foul for illegal ruff-ness!

PHOTOS:  Sexy Stars Who've Stripped Down For A Cause


MVP (Most Valuable Puppy) honors went to a Shiatsu-Beagle mix who beat down the tough competition on offense, defense and cuteness.
